Postwar World (Korean: 전쟁 이후의 세계) is a Korean-language book by Pak Noja, Russian-Korean scholar and professor of University of Oslo.

Nevertheless, the author argues that for the peace on the Korean Peninsula, although Putin's invasion of Ukraine is a clearly crime, South Korea must abandon "blind obedience to the United States" and restore diplomatic relations with Russia.
